12 Aug 08 Mini Brain-Dumps from 2008-08-12

8 miles over Malvern hills on mountain bike last night. Did not get off and push once – rode all the way. Progress being made I feel. #
David Florence of GB (Olympic canoe) goes 2 secs faster than the nearest competitor with only three men to go. Looking good for a medal. #
The polish canoeist has screwed up – at least a Bronze guaranteed for GB. #
Now the Czech. Starts with a 2 second penalty. 3.75 secs down on GB at half way – ends 4 secs down. Silver guaranteed for GB now. #
Slovak starts his run. Oh No! – 2.11 secs up on GB at half way. Beats us by 1.96. Silver for GB. How exciting if a bit disappointing. #
Badminton. GB vs China. Not looking good for GB. 16-12 down in the final set. At least our kit looks better than theirs. #
But hang on…. GB have leveled the scores at 18-18. Come on GB! #
Badminton update: 19-18 to GB #
Badminton update: 20-19 to GB. C’mon!! #
Yesss! GB beat China #
It’s difficult to work when the Olympics are on and there is a 42″ plasma screen in the studio. #
Decided my mugshot needs to be a little more Worhol #
Watching Shawshank Redemption. Haven’t seen this film for ages. #
